Thanks to Sups and BRL for those nice pics of the men and their shorts.. .

My lovefest for BJ and Tyler continues. I want to say thanks to Yolanda for giving BJ those tight purple spandex pants and to E/J for the flip flops. BJ sure looked cute in the purple pants and flip flops. :gman2: :gman2:. I also loved BJ in those surfer dude shorts and thanks to the nice aussie lady for asking BJ to take his shirt off. . But where in the world did BJ get the jeans from? Was this from the lost and found pile or did he whip into a store and buy them??

Congrats to BJ/Tyler for eating that huge bowl of bugs. I almost got sick watching them puke. yuck!! I was thrilled that they won the fast forward. I wonder how much lead time they have over the other teams? I think Phil was pleased that BJ/Tyler placed first as I think Phil loves them as much as I do. Go hippies go. Get to the finish line first!!!!

oh my god, what a beautiful ending to the amazing race. This was the best ending for this edition. I am so happy that BJ and Tyler pulled it off. This shows that nice guys do finish first. I wish them well in whatever else they do. My kids and I loved it when they were in Japan, those tiny bikes were so cute. How awesome is it that Tyler has a japanese girlfriend and she taught him all those words. We loved every minute of it. Those capsule hotels were strange but I guess it would be fun to sleep there for one night. Love that shot of Tyler riding that rollercoaster that shot out of the tunnel, his hair whipping back showed the sheer force of it. I would love to ride that one with Tyler. I would love to ride both those rollercoasters, the other ride looked a bit scary especially being upside down. I loved the sheer determination and speed of how BJ and Tyler pedalled that swan boat to the pitstop. That was so funny and it shocked the frat boys that they lost. I will have to watch that scene again. I loved the note that BJ and Tyler left for Ray and Yolanda along with the 2000 yen----so I guess that Ray and yolanda don't have to pay them the $20. I wonder if BJ will return those purple tights back to Yolanda---although they did look good on BJ.

The final roadblock was hard as I did not know most of the flags of the countries so kudo's to BJ for getting them correctly. Loved the encouragement shouted out from Tyler . as BJ ran and got the flags. They work so well together. And for my final gush moment, it was so great seeing BJ and Tyler run up to Phil and the final pit stop. . Thank you BJ and Tyler for running a great fun race, you guys helped other teams out, you guys always learned the language of the country you were in, you guys always had the funniest things to say, you guys were never mean, you always brought a smile to Phil's face when you reached the pit stop and you guys had so much fun running this race. That is why I love you guys so much.
